Hi! I'm Julia and I'm a licensed therapist in the state of Florida. I really enjoy working with kids 9 and up, teens, and adults who suffer from feeling disconnected from themselves due to anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, addiction, or poor self esteem. I also enjoy working with those in the LGBTQ+ community or those who experience self harm or suicidal thoughts. Through my calm, warm and compassionate demeanor, I help guide clients to return home to themselves and find a place of calm despite the noise in their heads or bodies.

I have been a Therapist for 27 years. Working with people who need and want to change is powerful. Most people have something they would like to change or heal from. Wanting or needing change does not make it happen, you have to work at it. Clients often come to therapy at a loss of what to do next and thats where the process begins. That's what therapy is all about. Finding the right therapist is critical to change and healing. I encourage you to call me.

When the pattern of a good night's sleep seems like an impossible task, I can help. We all have those occasional nights when sleep eludes us. What makes it worse is that we try to force ourselves to sleep, which never works. However, when a lack of sleep becomes the pattern you may be suffering from Insomnia. Insomnia can be defined as difficulty achieving a "good night's sleep." If you're frustrated with feeling sleepy and fatigued during the day and can't sleep at night, contact me. Together we will develop strategies that will give you that restful and restorative sleep you deserve.

Many of us are shaped by external influences—family, peers, authority figures, and the media. Often, we're unaware of how these forces impact our sense of self, leading to disconnection and dissatisfaction as we navigate lives built on others' expectations rather than our own needs. Sometimes, we might not even know what we truly want or need. My approach to therapy provides a nurturing, non-judgmental space to explore your true self and uncover your genuine needs and desires. I enjoy working with men to deprogram societal expectations that cause harm, helping them find their true selves beneath cultural conditioning.
